The Nolan bashing started with Dark Knight Rises and continued with Interstellar because he lost some important collaborators who helped make his earlier stuff work, he got big enough that people stopped telling him “no,” and he already got to use a lot of his dream project ideas earlier in his career.

And as…

Maybe she’s not one for dancing, but the second-last character illustrated literally has two left feet. 

But I’m also just bothered by an article discussing Naoko Takeuchi’s signature style featuring art not drawn by Naoko.

Literally just made a account because I agree with this so hard. I am not a TERF but I can definitely see how some of them get their views. I want to preface this by saying I absolutely believe trans women are women, they face more issues as women than “biological” (loaded term so in air quotes) woman.

I don’t know if it’s a myth or a real thing, but i had read about bear traps that would consist in a boulder hanging from a rope.
